Injured! Spain Forward Faces World Cup Exit
The 23-year-old sustained an injury in the final group match against Uruguay. He is now likely to miss the entire World Cup.
In their final World Cup group match against Uruguay, Spain celebrated a 1-0 victory (match report>>>), advancing confidently to the round of sixteen as group winners with seven points.
Who Lamine Yamal & Co. will face there depends on the outcome of Sunday's match between Austria and Algeria (from 4 AM in the LIVE ticker>>>).
Yeremy Pino, a Spanish forward, is unlikely to be part of the squad then – the 23-year-old from Crystal Palace was substituted in against Uruguay and sustained a collarbone injury in the final phase of the game.
"He has an injury that could lead to him missing the (remaining, Ed.) World Cup. Unfortunately, it could be a collarbone injury, we will see," said Spain's head coach Luis de la Fuente at the post-match press conference.
